56 Gallon Column Aquarium w/Stand for sale: West Chester PA

Hello Everyone,

I have a 56 Gallon Column Aquarium for sale with Stand by Marineland. THe tank is only a few months old. The black trim at the top was removed to make it rimless since it was used as a Riparium.

Selling the tank, stand, 40 lbs of Flourite, and only. Tank was purchased new for 260 from the local petsmart. Will let it go for 140 bucks obo. Pick up only. Please PM for fastest response.

Bump: The Dimension are 30x18x25.

The extra depth really helps with the display and will serve well as a planted tank, a riparium as I have used it, along with any display that requires height. Reason for selling is I'm getting a 75 to replace this tank with.

Top of the glass near the rim has a minor chip from the removal of the trim. Barely noticeable.

Any time man, you know that. M. Auriantica are sweet! They are also your best bet at finding cb frogs. They breed rather prolifically. That said, have her look at Phyllobates Terribillis 'yellow' or 'orange'. Very similar frogs, and much easier to come by.

Anyone wanna buy some pinoy angelfish? About silver dollar body size, nice blues and greens in their body and fins. $20 each or 3 for $50. Looking to thin the herd (14 total). Some will be breeding in the next couple months.

Are you looking for a particular species? I know plenty of folks who breed darts. Mantella are a bit more tricky to get captive bred. But you are in luck, because spring is the season when the mantellas are ready for sale. Unfortunately, they don't breed as readily as dart do. Check out understoryenterprises.com for mantellas. If any of mine were breeding yet, I would definitely hook you up. But I have a few months to go on some species and another year or so on the others.

I don't recall seeing any shrimps but I'm not saying there weren't any.......Their plants always look good. Thought their prices weren't as high as I had thought they would be...(does that make sense?)

They had pygmy cories - I picked up a few.
I got the last few assassin snails...
